The Homosexual Agenda KO’s the Christian Civic League of Maine

In my capacity as “a leading source of radical homosexual propaganda, anti-Christian bigotry, and radical transgender advocacy” and “wicked and sinful promoter of homosexual behavior”, I am pleased to announce that we have strengthened our grip on New England. The Christian Civic League of Maine has given up the ghost on its efforts to repeal the state’s LGBT rights laws, as well as and the campaign work to stop marriage equality and the ability of LGBTs to adopt.

“We’re pulling the plug,” said Michael Heath, executive director of the Christian Civic League of Maine. Heath said the evangelical group failed to attract voter, volunteer and financial support it needed to continue its campaign.

The group collected only a third of the 15,000 voters’ signatures it had set as a goal for primary election day June 10, said Heath. He added said that potential volunteers “don’t want to be aligned with bigotry and homophobia and hatred,” tags their opponents had applied to the initiative backers.

...“This was a really broad attack on gays and lesbians and their families,” said Betsy Smith, executive director of EqualityMaine. “Mainers are generally fair-minded and I think they sent a strong message on primary day.”

Muhahahaha…Bonus checks are in the mail for all members of the Homosexual Agenda. Good work, team.

Now what are they going to say?  No activist judges to blame—just a shunning of hatred, bigotry, and homophobia.

Just a ‘moral majority’ saying “knock it off.”

Now we can finally redecorate the Homosexual Clubhouse!

One down, 2,349 more to go…

”...potential volunteers “don’t want to be aligned with bigotry and homophobia and hatred,” tags their opponents had applied to the initiative backers.”

People in Maine must have more sense than (some) people in Cali.  For every two people turned off by the bigotry, I bet there’s one here who seeks it out…

Those broadsides from the Christian Civic League are hilarious. And I have to say, Pam’s House Blend is one of the best pro-sodomy sites on the Internet.

this is priceless. I think that quote should be sent as a postcard to all future anti-gay groups.

“...potential volunteers “don’t want to be aligned with bigotry and homophobia and hatred.”

How terrible. 

:D

Thank you for making my day today (for a change!) a non-misanthropy day.  Yay!

potential volunteers “don’t want to be aligned with bigotry and homophobia and hatred.”

Totally priceless. Is this a quote straight out of Skippy McBigotFace’s mouth? I can’t tell from the way it’s phrased in the article.

Good.  A round of Birkenstocks for everyone.

When I was in high school in the 90’s (Dirigo High class of 96 WOOOO), there were no ‘out’ gay people.  Just 6 years later, my youngest brother was out to everyone.  Mainers believe in leaving folks alone if they aren’t hurting you, and once everyone figured out gay people weren’t hurting anyone, well, there you go.  Now if we could just do something about the winters, I’d move back.

Yay!

I *think* same sex marriage is safe come November; my mom started joking about the theory it will help our economy, then stopped herself and said, “Maybe it will. And it’s about time, anyhow.” My mother is in her mid 60s and used to vote Republicans for president. She couldn’t stand Bush, though, and she prefers Obama in this race.
The religious bigots aren’t likely to change easily, but more an more people are waking up to the fact that marriage equality will not harm society, but will make things better for individuals making use of the new right.

Now watch: They’re going to claim that because they weren’t allowed to prevent people from getting married or adopt children, THEIR rights were violated.

Comment #13: Bitter Scribe  on  06/20  at  05:11 PM

Yawgmoth, you KNOW the only “cure” for winter is “Mud Season”! wink

I remember hearing something about this on the radio and mumbling something pre-coffee to my (het) other half about how I haven’t yet found a clause of th Homosexual Agenda (tm) that I didn’t like, and if I really wanted to Start Something in this small(ish) town I’d get me a bumper sticker to the effect of “Straight Supporter of the Homosexual Agenda (tm)”

Maybe when the newish car rusts enough that I need to break out the Bondo and bumper stickers to hold it all together…

I’m still high from the failure of my own anti-gay neighbors (in Oregon): http://www.sfbaytimes.com/?sec=article&article_id=8380

It is indeed a long, hard painful war—and the American patriots are winning!
